When you are dating someone or "talking" to someone, you should always be yourself. Never try to be someone you are not, because the right person will come along and love you just the way you are. I will be the first to admit that I am guilty of dressing a certain way or acting a particular way so someone would like me. I quickly realized that God made me who I am for a reason, and I should always be myself. Be you and only you.
If you are looking for "the perfect guy," then you will be searching for him forever. There is no such thing as "the perfect person" for you. Yes, I truly believe that God has picked someone special for me, but I know he will have his flaws just like I do. Of course we will have several things in common, but I will accept the things that we do not have in common. No one is perfect and everyone has different interests and hobbies. I will be more than glad to do what he likes to do because spending time with him is what truly matters the most. Be open, understanding, and accepting.
There are so many things that each partner should do for one another. Remember girls, you should treat your guy just as great as he treats you. It takes two people to build a relationship and make it work. When you are questioning whether or not a certain guy is right for you, ask yourself if he does any of the things listed below. He's a keeper if he does more than half of these things on the list:
1. He brings you flowers just because.
2. He has a relationship with God.
3. He is faithful.
4. He does the little things for you, such as writing a thoughtful note or asking how your day was.
5. He is always honest.
6. Can accept when he is wrong, but can also tell you when you are wrong.
7. He takes you to your favorite places.
8. He can plan a date without your input.
9. He surprise visits.
10. He gives unexpected gifts.
11. He respects your family.
12. He gets along with your friends.
13. He is always up for a lazy movie night.
14. He will tag along with you on your shopping trips.
15. Calls you randomly just to talk
16. Sends you sweet text messages
17. He accepts you for who you are.
18. He supports you in all of your endeavors.
19. He listens to your awful singing and does not complain.
20. He is ambitious.
21. He is a "glass half full" kind of guy.
22. He laughs with you (and at you sometimes).
23. He makes you smile constantly.
24. He is your best friend.
I know there are numerous things that every partner should do for one another, but these are 25 points that came to my mind. Be yourself and treat your guy the way you want to be treated.
